>Money is a great way to incentive people to work, even fully planned economies had wages and shops.
Yes, by deceiving them and selling them a lie (that money is wealth or just as good as wealth and they can stack wealth by holding on to money). It's just a stealth rationing system with one abstraction layer/extra step to hide that it's a rationing system. And the rations always, invariably and inevitably, go down over time for most people.
Money is just getting people to defer payment for their labour into the future, so they work for free or mostly for free in the present and near future. By the time it comes time for them to seek their deferred payment, their claims to said deferred payment (which is what money is: claims to wealth, not actual wealth itself) buy much less then they would have had they been spent immediately upon receipt. This is one problem with money and doing things for money.
Another problem is all of the real economic activity which does not occur or ceases to occur for lack of money or lack of financial profitability, even if all the real world requirements are still available: labour, energy, raw material inputs or precursors, means of production/factories.
So capitalism destroys the real economy for the sake of financial profitability. Which is itself built on perpetual geometric expansion of the supply of legal tender by supplementing it with fictional yet spendable legal tender.
It's an anti-economic anti-system. Almost like a mass psychology weapon of mass destruction. Like something an alien race would seed us with to make us easily controllable, backwards, underdeveloped, beneath our potential. Kind of like a system you'd indoctrinate smart bipedal cattle with so they can never progress or technologically and industrially advance to a level where they can challenge you and seek freedom and cessation of their farming for Adrenochrome.
